Art History
Magenta
Magenta is a vivid purplish-red color that occupies a position midway between red and blue on the color wheel. It is one of the primary colors in the subtractive CMYK color model used in color printing and does not correspond to a specific wavelength in the visible spectrum, making it an extra-spectral color.
Renaissance Art
Renaissance art, emerging in Europe during the 14th to 17th centuries, marked a profound shift from medieval artistic conventions, emphasizing realism, humanism, and a revival of classical antiquity. This period introduced innovative techniques such as linear perspective, chiaroscuro, and sfumato, leading to more lifelike and three-dimensional representations in painting and sculpture.
